The Process of Progressive Stamping Services
The structural system of progressive stamping has the characteristics of high efficiency and precision. Each part plays its role, completing the gradual forming of metal materials, and manufacturing high-precision, complex shaped parts and products. Progressive stamping is a metal processing technology that deepens and gradually forms step by step, and it produces metal parts with complex shapes and high precision in large quantities. Its structure mainly includes the following parts:
1.Progressive Punching Machine: Progressive punching machine is a specialized equipment used for progressive stamping processing. Multiple workstations form a progressive punch press, each corresponding to its punch and mold, gradually realizing the processing steps of multiple processes step by step.
2.Mold System: One of the most important parts of stamping processing is the mold system installed on progressive punching machines. The mold system can be divided into upper and lower molds, to support and form metal materials. As the workpiece gradually moves on different workstations, the mold system gradually deepens and forms metal materials step by step.
3.Feeding System: With the help of an accurate feeding system, it helps to move the workpiece according to plan at each workstation. The feeding system ensures the accurate position and stable movement of the workpiece, to further improve machining accuracy and quality.
4.Control System: To monitor and control the machining process, progressive punching machines have advanced control systems. The control system has the function of adjusting the speed, force, and position of the punch, which helps to make the machining operation more precise.
5.Auxiliary Equipment: Progressive stamping will be equipped with some auxiliary equipment, including an automatic feeding system, pneumatic device, lubrication system, etc., which helps to enhance production efficiency and ensure safety.
The process of manufacturer’s progressive stamping service:
Through progressive stamping services, complex-shaped metal parts can be efficiently and accurately produced to meet customer needs and are widely used in industries such as automobiles, electronics, and home appliances.
